Quo-Lab HbA1c analyzer
A reliable semi-automated HbA1c analyzer
Overall, this is a good product but there appears to be no On/Off switch and they need to add other tests to this device. e.g: CRP, D-Dimer . This can increase the score to sale the device.

Quo-Lab™ A1c is a desktop point-of-care analyzer for measuring glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c).
The semi-automated analyzer has been designed specifically to meet the needs of diabetes clinics and laboratories in settings that demand low cost of operation and ease of use.
From a simple procedure, Quo-Lab™ provides lab-accurate test results within four minutes (CV < 3% at 7% A1c) from a venous or finger prick blood sample of just 4 μl. Quo-Lab™ uses the same boronate affinity methodology used by Quo-Test and is similarly unaffected by Hb variants.
Step by step instructions are displayed on a clear, multi-lingual display. Staff training time can therefore be minimised and the opportunity for error is reduced.
Quo-Lab can store up to 7,000 results which can be downloaded as text files to a PC via the integrated USB interface. Alternatively results can be printed using a printer which connects via a serial port.
Quo-Lab™ has received its CE mark and is available for sale in most global markets subject to local registration requirements.
